Description

The apartment has a hall, a kitchen, a bathroom with toilette and one big room, in whole it has approx. 60 sqm. You rent the complete apartment.

The room has high ceilings (4m). It's furnished with a kingsize bed (1,80m x 2m), a couch, a palisander side board and a big floor lamp. The kitchenette is original from the 60s built in the GDR. Furthermore the kitchen is furnished with a big table and three chairs. It's simple equipped with pans, dishes, cutlery, water cooker, toaster, a fridge and two cooking plates. And if you ever wanted to shower in an old washing trough is this your bathroom!

The apartment is on the ground floor of an old building. Most of the tenants are living there for a lot of years, some of them lived there already before the fall of the wall (it's the former eastern part of the city).

Actually this location is very central. It's in the area "Mitte", close to restaurants, bars, galleries, shops, fleamarkets and public transport facilities (subway U6, Schwartzkopffstrasse; S-Bahn S1, S2, S25 and Tram M10, Nordbahnhof). It's only two subway stops to the well-known Oranienburger Strasse (15 min walk), three subway stops to station Friedrichstrasse or a 10 minutes walk to the Berlin Wall Memorial.

1 blanket, 1 pillow, linen and 2 towels for each person are included.

Check in and check out must be previously agreed by both sides.

Since 2014 the Federal State of Berlin charges a City Tax on all overnight costs which are not job related. I kindly ask you to pay another 5% in cash when you check in.

Reviews of this property

My friend and I arrived to the lovely apartment and were greeted by the very friendly Karsten, who explained everything about the apartment, location, helped us and provided a map. The flat generously has everything required (coffee, tee, plates etc.), so there was no need to buy something, which will anyhow not be finished.

The atmosphere is, I guess, a very good version of Hipster-cool Berlin - I loved it, especially because it was very spacious.

The bed is enormous, so sharing it between two friends is definitely not a problem. Bathroom, kitchen facilities are fine.

The apartment is just next to the u-bahn and you can be in the center in 10 minutes. Also, on foot we found out that you can get to great happening areas by strooling for 10-15 minutes.

All in all, very recommendable indeed.

And a big thanks to Karsten for great on-point communication and a high level of flexibility!

We had a great time in Berlin, in the Karsten's apartment.
Located in a metro connected zone, just near the station, it's a good start point to explore the city, even if it's easily possible to reach the note Friedrichstraße by foot. As in the pictures, the apartment has a very particular furniture, with an original and pleasant style.
You'll find all you need to for a relaxing stay, highly recommended.

Great accommodation, close to U-Bahn and close to the center. Karsten was very welcoming, showed us around the apartment and took the time to provide us with some local tips for bars and restaurants that tourists won't find.

The apartment itself is tastefully decorated in an artsy way. It's quite big (bigger than we expected from the pictures), especially the bedroom. The bedroom has blinds, so if you want to lay in, you won't be waken up by the sunlight. The apartment was clean on arrival.

We came by car. Parking is free on the street, but you have to be a bit lucky to find a spot.

This apartment in Mitte is very nice! Lovely interior.
Only 2 min walk from the tube. In the same street very good Italian to have lunch and around the corner a good place to have breakfast or lunch or dinner or take away, called la vita, this is in front of the tunestation.
The host of this apartment is very friendly, will help with anything.
I highly recommend this apartment.
